JhttpFileShare

JhttpFileShare is a straightforward application designed for local data exchange. It provides a simple interface for sharing files across different devices within your network. This tool is not just about transferring data, it’s about making local file sharing uncomplicated and efficient.

This application will start a local server to access your directories and transfer files to other devices.

❗️Disclaimer: Your JDK executable needs to be able to bypass your firewall before the server is accessible in your local network.

Usage

Start the server with the following command:

The CLI will show you the IP Address and Port of the server. You can now access the server with any device in your local network.

❕Disclaimer: I recommend to keep the default port, since you dont need to write it explicitly in the url.

If you are not sure about the IP Address of your server, you can use the -ip flag to show all available network interfaces and set the wanted Network Interface with the -ip=<network_name> option.

java -jar JhttpFileShare.jar -ip=wlan0
